The map is filled with remarkable detail throughout, particularly in Texas, New Mexico and Arizona with lots on information on Native American tribes, missions and topography. The cartouche features a lovely landscape with flowers and native dwellings.

The map has original coloring and a nice impression. The centerfold is toned, and there is a small bit of worming in the lower, blank margin near the centerfold, not affecting the map.
